About This Project

Here are two areas on the layout where you can see trains running through the countryside. Nothing but trees and mountain terrain to view trains moving on the mainline. Helper sees plenty of traffic since it is a convergence from double to single track main. Notice the CB&W locomotive sitting in the helper pocket waiting to help trains up the grade. The fire tower overlooks the landscape at Telegraph to be sure no fires get out of hand.
